The Star
Wars: The Old Republic website has word that a new version 2.3 game
update is now available on the Play Test Server for the Star Wars MMORPG, though

"Game Update 2.3 is now live on our Public Test Server! For those of you that
already have high level, copied characters on our Public Test Server, we
encourage you to explore the CZ-198 moon and two new Czerka Flashpoints. Get on,
check everything out, and give us your feedback by posting on the
Public Test

characters for this test nor will there be any rewards offered for testing. We
apologize for any inconvenience that this may cause."

Yeah but simply being profitable on a month to month basis isn't enough to keep a project alive. It has to be more profitable than all the other things you could put those resources into.

EA isn't going to keep Bioware Austin running and developing the game if it is only making a middling profit. They will gut the studio and particularly outstanding employees will be offered jobs at another EA studio.
